Chennai: El Alma de Madras – Tour Exclusivo por Georgetown

Kannan fue genial guiándonos por la calle Fort George con sus edificios históricos, visitó la fascinante Basílica de la calle Thomas y los edificios coloniales a ambos lados de la Estación Central. Buen ritmo, buena descripción y bastante fascinante.

We had an awesome tour with Satish! So much history to learn about Chennai and the impactful history of South India more broadly. Satish lead at a friendly, considered pace, and it was great to learn both within the St George Fort Museum and walking about the streets. Would highly recommend.

Excellent tour guide with a breadth of knowledge about history, architecture and with great communication. Would highly recommend this tour.

Hareesh led an informative and fun tour. Great to spend time talking about the history and the culture from different perspectives. Learnt lots of interesting things about the area.

Over all the experience was great and very well explained. The walk consists of Spencer plaza, LIC building, St. George Town, parrys corner.

We had a truly wonderful experience exploring Chennai, made all the more memorable thanks to our fantastic guide. Knowledgeable, warm, and attentive, he shared the city’s rich history and culture with great enthusiasm and detail, while also ensuring that the entire tour moved at a relaxed, enjoyable pace. We felt well taken care of throughout the tour, and his local insights. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience Chennai in an authentic and engaging way.

We took the Fort St George tour with Mr.Natarajan and it was very good. We started at the Fort followed by St.Marys church and touched upon 500+ years of history and trivia. Following that we went around Parry’s corner and ended with the Armenian church. Mr.Natarajan took time and explained various details of each location and allowed time for us to explore on our own. Highly recommend for both locals and tourists!

My partner and I recently joined the Georgetown Heritage Walking Tour—about the founding of Chennai—and it far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Satish, was exceptional: knowledgeable, personable, and fully committed to making the experience special. 🌂 Rain or shine—he’s got you covered When a sudden downpour surprised us mid-tour, Satish didn’t hesitate—he hailed an auto-rickshaw, ensuring we stayed dry and comfortable while seamlessly continuing the journey. That kind of attention and flexibility went above and beyond. 📚 A rich blend of history and storytelling Satish captivated us with vivid tales—from Fort St. George’s founding in 1640 by the British East India Company to the rise of bustling George Town through its markets, temples, churches and bazaars. His deep understanding of local landmarks—the Armenian Church, Dare House, old mint, and flower bazaar—brought Chennai’s layered past to life 👣 Intimate and thoughtful itinerary With a small group setting, Satish made sure everyone was engaged, asking questions and offering extra insights on architecture, community, and culture. We loved the stops at hidden street shrines and the food markets—places you simply wouldn’t find on your own. 👍 Friendly, knowledgeable, and personable Satish balanced professionalism with warmth: he shared local anecdotes, historical trivia, and even tips for navigating Chennai after the tour. We felt welcomed throughout. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. Thanks to Satish, our walk through George Town was not just a tour—it was an immersive story of Chennai’s soul. Highly recommended!

I did this walking tour with Natarajan who was a knowledgeable and interesting guide. We visited a number of varied historical sites and I found the experience quite amazing.

A very knowledgeable guide and a great authentic tour. Great story teller! Museum, houses, churches and temples to visit. Plenty of snacks and local filter coffee.
